you can't cut out phishing. IDN homoglyphs used to be an easy way to get burned. AFAIK this is now prevented at least by mainstream browsers (those for which a pw mgr plugin would exist anyway). 'rn' vs 'm' is still a multi-letter homoglyph that works and is very very difficult to identify.

I would prefer to trust the pw mgr to send password to only the recorded website, than for me to remember and pay attention no matter how tired or distracted I might be, to what that website is. 'rn' vs 'm' as noted, but also citibank.com vs cittibank.com vs citibankcorp.com, or worse for sites that may not have a .com, how am I supposed to remember it's for TLD .io vs TLD .phisher?

You can only cut out the attack vectors if you act perfectly. That's simply not dependable. All I personally need to reassure myself of this is to look at the number of bugs I write per day.

Timing is good on this one: https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2019/02/behol...

I didn't investigate in detail but it appears that it is a fake iframe. Even X-Frame-Options et al to prevent 3rd party iframe doesn't solve it because the iframe is fake to begin with!

Very very hard for you to prevent copy/paste to a fake iframe SSO.
